Chapter 72 Thank You
"Young master, why did you choose a piano?"

Fan Qingyao couldn't help looking curiously at the guqin on Lin Lan's lap.

"Because the most precious treasure in the secret treasury is this violin, and the others are of no use to me." Lin Lan said casually, "I'll give you this violin, just because you don't have a good violin yet."

"give me?"

Fan Qingyao was stunned, and quickly waved his hands and said: "Young master is the leader, it's rare to enter the Tianyuan secret storehouse, how can you give me this reward? Why don't you exchange it with others for treasure?"

Lin Lan glanced at her and said, "Take it, it's the biggest effect if you practice hard."

Fan Qingyao thought for a while and said: "Okay, then I'll use it first, and when you need to exchange treasures in the future, you can just take them at any time."

Only then did she step forward to hold the guqin in her hands, and plucked it lightly with her fingertips.

After trying it for a long while, a flash of surprise flashed in Fan Qingyao's beautiful eyes, and she exclaimed: "This Fuxi-style guqin looks quite old, but I didn't expect the sound of the piano to be so warm and clear. This tone is already the best among the pianos I have ever seen. The good ones, even the Royal Tianyin Qinfang doesn’t have such a good piano.”

Pavilion Master Yue stared at the guqin for a long time before softly saying: "This is Master Qinzong's 'Farewell to the Phoenix'."

Fan Qingyao couldn't help being taken aback, and said in surprise, "This Qin is the legendary Fengbie Qianqiu Qin?"

"Fengqi sycamore wood is the face, the thousand-year-old snow silk is the string, the jasper of the spiritual eye is the emblem, and the red bird is the sandalwood. What is this piano?" The master of Yue Pavilion sighed and said: "Look at this In the Longchi on the back of the qin, is there the word 'Qianqiu'?"

Fan Qingyao immediately turned over the body of the piano to look at it, and said in surprise, "Is it really Fengbie Qianqiuqin?"

Pavilion Master Yue sighed: "I didn't expect Fengbie Qianqiu to be in the Tianyuan secret library of the academy. No wonder... Among the five holy zithers of Mr. Qin Zong, the most powerful Qisha qin and Fulongyin are sealed in the Qin Pavilion. Jin Gewu, who was slaughtered on the battlefield, is missing, and his dream is at Pavilion Master Su's place, while Master Qin Zong played the most during his lifetime, which is Feng Bie Qianqiu."

"Master Jijiu." Fan Qingyao asked cautiously: "I heard that Fengbie Qianqiu has three phoenix songs specially played? Do you have the score?"

"The piano pavilion should have them. I'll go and ask for you in a few days."

Pavilion Master Yue nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "If you can learn those three phoenix operas, there will be many people who want to ask you for help."

"Oh?" Lin Lan asked casually, "What can I do for you?"

After Fan Qingyao put this Phoenix Bie Qianqiu into her treasure bag, she said: "My lord, this Feng Bie Qianqiu has no killing power and is not good at fascinating souls. For others to practice, it is said that if they can play the most difficult song "Thousands of Miles of Phoenix", they can also use Fengming to refine their true nature, which will be beneficial to Renzong's cultivation of supernatural powers."

"That's good." Lin Lan nodded lightly, "You have this ability, so I can rest assured from now on."

Fan Qingyao was slightly taken aback, she always felt a little weird when she heard it, the young master's words were like confessing his last words?
……

It was evening.

The candles were burning brightly in the house, Lin Lan was sitting on a chair in the main hall, while Fan Qingyao had installed a sound-proof barrier in the room next door, quietly playing the Fengbie Qianqiu Qin, getting acquainted with the newly acquired guqin with some excitement.

Lin Lan turned her head slightly to look, and saw a black cat sitting on the desk table, its vertical pupils were looking at him silently.

If you don't look at those eyes, this cat still looks very cute, small and exquisite, not much bigger than a slap, and its head is round.

"How can you help me change my destiny?"

Lin Lan looked at the cat, feeling a little confused.

How to use this extraterrestrial thing to change the destiny?

However, no matter what, you must take this cat with you, maybe you will encounter a chance?

"By the way, aren't you hungry?" Lin Lan asked.

The national teacher left a message saying that he should feed the cat well, and he also asked Fan Qingyao to prepare several kinds of food that the cat should like.

But the cat ignored him at all, just looked at him quietly.

"What's your name?" Lin Lan asked, but the cat naturally wouldn't answer him.

Immediately he said casually: "You are so small and dark, so you can call him Xiao Hei."

Then, he saw the cat's facial muscles twitch slightly, as if surprised by the clichéd name, and then shook its head towards him.

"Are you so happy?" Lin Lan nodded slightly and said, "Xiao Hei, what do you want to eat?"

The black cat immediately gave him a very humane look, then raised a small paw and pointed at him.

"Do you want to eat me?" Lin Lan said, "Or my mana?"

He immediately raised his hand and mobilized a stream of mana to send it out from his fingertips, and then sent it to the black cat.

The black cat lowered its head, stuck out its tongue and licked it, then closed its eyes.

Immediately, Lin Lan felt that the magic power of his fingertips was missing, and he couldn't help raising his eyebrows slightly, and suddenly said, "Do you really feed on energy?"

He gathered another mana.

But the black cat opened its eyes, shook its head, and refused to eat no matter what.

"It's quite a challenge."

Lin Lan showed a hint of a smile, and then urged a sharp sword element, which came out from his fingertips.

This is the sword element after condensing the magical power of the sword.

The black cat's eyes lit up now, it lowered its head and licked it, devouring the sword element immediately, and then looked at him eagerly.

"Like this?" Lin Lan smiled and continued to push Jian Yuan.

Anyway, it’s okay even if the power of supernatural power is consumed, supernatural power is like an engine, and mana is fuel. As long as there is a steady stream of mana, it can keep mobilizing the power of supernatural power, and he also has the supernatural power of "Boundless Qi Sea", so it is very fast to restore mana. quick.

Immediately, Lin Lan kept urging Jian Yuan to feed the black cat.

And this black cat's appetite is like an invincible hole. After a while, Lin Lan fed it all the sword essence driven by mana, but it still looked at Lin Lan with unsatisfied interest.

"So edible?"

Lin Lan was a little surprised.

At this time, his mana is still above [-]%, but the power of heaven and earth attracted by Boundless Qi Sea has been exhausted.

You know, his sea of ​​energy capacity is more than five times that of a normal practitioner. After all his magic power was activated into Jianyuan, it was swallowed up by this cat?
"Interesting, I want to see how much you can swallow."

Lin Lan casually took out a bottle of elixir specially used for invigorating qi from the package, and while using the elixir to regain energy, he urged Jianyuan to feed the black cat continuously, and at the same time, he also used the boundless sea of ​​​​qi to attract him. The power of heaven and earth.

The recovery speed of the pill was relatively slow, and after a while, more than [-]% of the mana was consumed.

He stopped immediately and began to silently wait for his mana to recover.

"You wait a moment."

Lin Lan glanced at the black cat, which looked like an invincible cave, and activated the tranquility envelope again. While deducing the essence of supernatural powers in his mind, he was also recovering mana at an astonishing speed.

After a while, the mana was fully recovered, and a large amount of heaven and earth power was re-gathered around, ready to be converted into mana at any time.

Lin Lan continued to feed it the sword essence, and consumed all his mana in one breath. Adding the mana transformed by the power of heaven and earth, it was fully equivalent to the sword essence transformed by ten times the mana of an ordinary practitioner.

But the black cat was still not full. It stuck out its tongue and licked his empty fingertips, and continued to look at him eagerly.

"hold on."

Lin Lan continued to close his eyes, while deducing the artistic conception of supernatural powers, while recovering his mana.

Just like that, after feeding back and forth four times, the black cat still didn't show any intention of stopping, and still looked at him eagerly.

Lin Lan didn't care, anyway, mana recovered quickly, and the black cat also faintly changed.

It was originally just an ordinary black cat, but others couldn't see it. When Lin Lan didn't look at it, he couldn't feel its existence. Apart from that, there was nothing special about it.

And now...

Lin Lan suddenly discovered that when the black cat scratched its chin with its claws, there was a hint of the artistic conception of swordsmanship in the movement of probing the claws?

"interesting."

After discovering this, Lin Lan suddenly looked forward to what would happen once the cat was fed.

Just as he was about to resume feeding it with mana, he heard a voice outside the courtyard of the house:
"Pingle is visiting, can Mr. Lin meet?"

Princess Pingle?

Lin Lan raised her eyebrows slightly, and immediately said, "Please come in."

……

Fan Qingyao took a pack of new tea from Yue Pavilion Master and went to make tea outside the courtyard.

Princess Pingle's 'Tang Wanqiu', now changed into a high-collared dark blue shirt and green radish skirt, is sitting opposite Lin Lan, while the Wuge Pavilion master Ying Granny is standing as usual behind her.

However, Tang Wanqiu's face was slightly pale at this time, as if he was very tired and tired, and he looked a little sluggish, and his neck was tucked into the high collar, as if he was covering something.

Lin Lan looked at the princess and said: "Today, the princess narrowly escaped death in the Chengyuan Hall. Fortunately, there was a national teacher to rescue her. The princess seemed a little tired. If she didn't take a good rest at the mansion, how could she get here? Am I here?"

"Thank you Mr. Lin for your concern. I'm fine now." Tang Wanqiu shook his head slightly and said, "The main reason for coming to visit at this time is to thank Mr. Lin. I should have come earlier, but..."

"It's too early to say thank you now."

Lin Lan said: "The two snake girls will not fall into my hands until they get the approval of the national teacher and His Majesty in the palace tomorrow, and since the person who won the championship in the end is not the person from Jingtiantai, Jingtiantai will really hand it over to me." Are those two snake girls out?"

"It seems that Mr. Lin knows quite a lot." Tang Wanqiu sighed, and said: "But you can rest assured about this point. With the Master of the National Teacher in charge, even if the head of Jingtiantai deliberately cheats, he will be exposed, so that The two snake girls will definitely fall into the hands of Mr. Lin, and I am worried about what will happen afterwards."

"What happened after that?" Lin Lan glanced at her.

"Those two snake girls must have the means left by Jingtiantai, such as poisoning, cursing and so on." Tang Wanqiu said: "Also, Jingtiantai should ask Mr. Lin for the snake girl."

She took a deep breath, looked at Lin Lan sincerely, and said, "At that time, please ask Mr. Lin not to agree to Jingtiantai. If so, Tang Wanqiu will be very grateful."

While speaking, Tang Wanqiu waved his sleeve robe across the table, and saw three delicate gift boxes appear on the table.

"These three gifts are already the most useful treasures for Mr. that I can take out."

She stared at Lin Lan and said, "One is to thank Mr. Lin for winning the first place for me and Dream Snake in the Chengyuan Examination, and to save the situation. One is to thank Mr. Lin for returning the snake girl to us. The other is to thank Mr. Lin Tomorrow, Mr. rejects the request for the Jingtiantai."

Lin Lan was silent for a while, then shook her head slightly and said: "Chengyuan will try to win the championship for myself, I am not interested in the two snake monsters, and I have already promised to return them to you, so the princess does not need to take out these gifts, I do the same I will help you, please take it back."

He just wanted Tang Wanqiu to owe him favors, so that even if there were any misunderstandings in the future, he would be reluctant to kill him.

Tang Wanqiu couldn't help being slightly startled, and immediately said: "Mr. Lin doesn't want to accept these gifts, it's Mr. Lin's integrity, but our etiquette is indispensable, please accept it, otherwise Wanqiu's conscience will really be troubled."

Seeing that she seemed to have made up her mind, Lin Lan thought for a while and asked, "What are these three gifts?"

"A "Strategy of Longevity" written by our ancestors, a real treasure suitable for sword repair and body protection, and a real treasure flying sword for sword repair." Tang Wanqiu said immediately.

Lin Lan thought for a while, and said, "Just leave me the real treasure of body protection and the flying sword, and there is no need for the theory of longevity."

Tang Wanqiu was stunned for a moment, and said: "Sir, please accept all three, especially this "Longevity Policy", which records the records and opinions of the ancestors on various methods of longevity, which is the most precious, although the ancestors only lived 71 years, but that is for some other reason, otherwise the ancestors would surely be able to live forever."

Lin Lan shook her head slightly, and said: "I won the championship for the princess, and it's nothing to accept a thank you gift. It's okay to return the snake girl to the princess and receive another thank you gift, but I refuse Jingtiantai's request. It's what I should, and I don't have the face to accept the princess's thank you again."

"Then...how about keeping the "Strategy for Longevity"?" Tang Wanqiu couldn't help but said.

"The Princess doesn't need to persuade you anymore." Lin Lan shook her head again.

He couldn't say that he had obtained the "Strategy of Longevity" in Tianyuan Beppu long ago, or even the "Tianyuan Essentials", which was the general outline of the supernatural powers of the first national teacher?

Moreover, he needs the princess to owe him favors, and it is just right to reject the most precious "Longevity Policy".

"cough."

When Tang Wanqiu wanted to say something more, Granny Ying behind her coughed lightly and said, "Master Lin, since Mr. Lin is unwilling to accept it, let's remember it first."

Immediately, she heard Grandma Ying's voice transmission whispering in her ears: "Princess, for a reincarnated person like Mr. Lin, it is impossible for him not to understand the importance of "Strategy for Longevity", but he refuses to accept it." Acceptance, I chose two true treasures that are of little use, naturally I don't want to accept such a great favor from you for nothing, to avoid the imbalance of Dao Xin, you don't have to force it, just repay the favor when you have the opportunity in the future."

"OK then."

Tang Wanqiu gave up after listening, and then looked at Lin Lan seriously and said: "If Mr. Lin needs my help in the future, just ask, I will try my best."

Lin Lan didn't say anything.

Rejecting a useless "Longevity Strategy" in exchange for a favor from Princess Pingle is naturally a very good deal.
